Earth-Rabbit dodged to the side with a leap, letting that pitch-black object explode in the center of the room.
The current situation made him look very disheveled. For so long, it seemed this was the first time he had been chased and beaten by a participant.
“You fucking! Chen Junnan!! You think I’m afraid of you?!” Earth-Rabbit roared, then snapped back to awareness and scared himself. “Wait… it’s not Chen Junnan… it’s Song Qi?”
Song Qi also slowly frowned in the room. He clearly heard Earth-Rabbit call out Chen Junnan’s name several times… What was going on?
He was clearly attacking Earth-Rabbit with his life on the line, yet Earth-Rabbit was single-mindedly wanting to kill Chen Junnan?
This situation was truly difficult for Song Qi to understand.
“Not only is our leader’s thinking unexpected, even his ability is this unconventional?” Song Qi let out a light laugh, walked forward two steps closer to the door. “You once said you could save my life at a critical moment. Now I believe it… but how did you do it?”
At this moment, Earth-Rabbit used the wall to shield his body, slightly turned his body to stare at Song Qi from inside the door. “Hey, kid, what kind of trick have you all played on me?”
“I really don’t know.” Song Qi shook his head. “I’m just doing my part. Everything else is not my concern.”
“You…” Earth-Rabbit also felt something was strange. He had been in the same room with Song Qi the whole time. If the other party had any strategy, he should have heard it at the first moment. So why had they all gone silent now?
Thinking of this, he looked around at the room he was in. This room still had four doors.
Earlier he had been in room “Six.” The two adjacent rooms with four doors were rooms “Ten” and “Seven” respectively.
So which of these two rooms was he currently in?
Earth-Rabbit calculated in his mind. If he was now in room “Ten”… then the adjacent room to the south would be “Fourteen,” very close to the other participants. Rather than tangle with Song Qi, it would be better to go intercept the others’ path earlier, otherwise the game would truly be lost.
But this way was also difficult to handle. He couldn’t lock the door now, and the room “Fourteen” he needed to go to was directly facing Song Qi. This person had somehow obtained throwing objects again. Opening the door in front of him would be very dangerous.
Earth-Rabbit slightly narrowed his pair of red eyes, then turned his body to look out from the door, and indeed discovered the clue.
“Earth-Rabbit…” Song Qi’s lips began to turn pale. He estimated Earth-Rabbit had already understood his attack method, but still forced out a smile and said, “I only have five attack opportunities, so don’t be too scared.”
He raised his left hand that had already been blown to pieces. The pinky and ring finger on it had already been torn off.
“Are you a madman…”
Earth-Rabbit felt that none of the people participating in the game this time were afraid of death. This was simply the most bizarre situation he had ever seen.
If all the participants in the entire “End Land” had this kind of resolve, shouldn’t the “Zodiacs” have been extinct long ago?
“No… your kind will always be the minority…”
In the vast majority of cases, the “Zodiacs” didn’t need to take action. The “Participants” would fall into chaos on their own due to scheming against each other. They harmed each other, turning an originally simple game into something incredibly complex. That was human nature.
“But what sin did I commit?” Earth-Rabbit frowned and muttered to himself. “You damn reckless fools, don’t you know the way to clear this game is to ‘delay time’? As long as you don’t use action points, just keep waiting until dark, until I have no choice but to leave the magical treasure behind and leave the venue. Then those of you who survive can directly leave here… Yet you’re all fighting desperately to snatch the magical treasure? One by one looking like you’re all prepared to die here… Am I a fake ‘Earth-level’? Are none of you afraid of me?!”
Earth-Rabbit became more and more agitated as he spoke, feeling he had been greatly insulted.
“You’ve clearly already figured out ‘the game has no time limit’… yet you keep using various schemes wanting to kill me… Madmen… six madmen…”
Earth-Rabbit leaned against the wall, maintaining distance from Song Qi as much as possible, then quickly pondered the current situation.
At this moment, he had no way to delay time anymore. The tactics he had formulated had actually become ineffective against himself.
Continuing to delay would only result in his own failure.
Just then his ears moved slightly, and he actually heard soft whispers from a room not far away.
Having just been in an intense battle with Song Qi in the same room, naturally he hadn’t noticed these faint sounds. Now his hearing seemed to have recovered somewhat.
“The magical treasure should be… in the room to our ‘north,’ right?” a voice asked. “Room Seven?”
“Probably. Song Qi’s voice came from there.” another person answered.
“Keep your voice down… The rabbit’s hearing should have declined now. Don’t startle him. Find a way to go around in a circle to get the magical treasure.”
“I’ll go check the situation first. You go rendezvous with them first.”
Earth-Rabbit closed his eyes and continuously captured this extremely subtle sound with both ears. These two people were almost entirely speaking in breaths, sounding particularly cautious.
Not to mention he was separated from them by one room. Even ordinary people in the same room couldn’t possibly hear these whispers clearly.
“But unfortunately, I’m a ‘Rabbit.'” Earth-Rabbit closed his eyes and reconstructed the current situation.
According to what the other party said, their “north” was room “Seven,” which meant they were in room “Eleven.”
And he was their neighbor, so his room was “Ten.”
“As long as my hearing remains… I will never lose my sense of direction.”
He showed a slight smile, looking toward the direction where someone had just spoken. Now all his action points had been completely used up, and the participants’ turn was about to begin.
He only heard the sound of doors opening nearby, but his hearing had only recovered a small portion and hadn’t fully recovered. He could only determine these sounds weren’t right next to him. He still couldn’t clearly discern the specific locations.
“Hey… Song Qi, I think you don’t need to torture yourself anymore.” Earth-Rabbit knew the immediate priority was to deal with the man before him, otherwise he would definitely block his own actions in the next turn. “Even if you throw all your fingers over, you can’t kill me. It’s nothing more than adding pain to yourself unnecessarily.”
Song Qi was about to respond when he suddenly heard soft words by his ear, so he extended his right hand to gently cover his ear.
“Yes, Sixth Sister.” Song Qi nodded. “It’s over…? So fast?”
Earth-Rabbit turned his body to look at the man in the room, discovering he was standing in place talking to himself. He didn’t know what the situation was.
“Forget about helping us.” Song Qi said. “We’re too far apart. The battle situation here is extremely intense. It probably won’t be long before the outcome is decided. You coming over wouldn’t make it in time either. Right, I’m not sure who will win or lose.”
“Our leader?” Song Qi let out another bitter laugh. “How should I put it… When you think he’s unreliable, he makes people feel very reassured. When you want to rely on him, you’ll discover he’s more reckless than anyone. He’s truly an unpredictable teammate.”
“Yes, you all go help Little Jiu. Remember to tell me Fifth Brother’s location. Little Jiang Shi should be injured. After the game ends, we’ll all rendezvous.”
